I just phoned the debt collection agency and my remaining balance is £1252.21...a bit more than expected
but I'm determined to pay it all off.
My DFD is 21st March 2014 but I'm determined to bring it forward by at least a month so I can have a debt free birthday.
On the plus side of things, I got a free lunch and some snacks from one of my work colleagues
I hope everyone is having a good day x2019 wins: Nothing yet

Evening all,
I nearly managed a NSD today but ended up buying a book on Amazon that I've wanted for ages. I took my lunch to work today so I saved there instead of my usual trip to Morrisons. I've grilled my chicken and put my cous cous in a container ready for tomorrow's lunch and I feel good.
At the moment I have £50 in my purse and £31.01 in my bank account all to last me til Friday which I can totally manage. I'll pay of £30 of debt on Friday and put the £50 in my holiday find savings tin.
Quick question before I go to bed (I went gym and I am knackered) ...am I the only one that finds it easier to not spend money when there are notes in my purse?

Well you are a better woman than me because if I have money of any kind in my wallet, it leaves me! I put every extra note I get into the bank otherwise I may as well never have had it.......although it is good to know your limitations!

Sadly...I'm back!
I need some kind of avenue to vent while getting my life in order.
I'm still in debt, I'll calculate exactly how much on Monday.
Today I'm going to:
1) Sort through all my bank statements and letters and put them in folders
2) Add as many books as possible on Amazon (Takes forever)
3) Put clothes I haven't work in 6 months on eBay (I really need to start making use of 0 insertion fee weekends on there)
I hope you're all well on this beautiful sunny day and managing to keep everything in order (Unlike me!)2019 wins: Nothing yet
